I also use the ninja... I love it.

I was told 1 year .. no alcohol... I hope it isn't so!

Good luck... I am 4 days post and the best thing I took to the hospital was a heating pad.... just sayin....

Sleeveofsteel, Welcome to the group. You are doing awesome! Congrats!

I usually lay on the heating pad or put it on my stomach. I don't need it much anymore. I have been lucky I guess. I feel a little weak but that's about it. I keep pushing the liquids. I hope I am getting enough. Hope everyone is getting better and more comfortable every day.

I had mine done the same day.. Oct 17. Nothing is burning going down and I am not burping any. I am able to eat everything I have tried. Jello, popcycles, protein drinks, water etc. I do drink and eat slowly.

Glad you are getting to go home. Try that heating pad for the spasms.. I have really found a new friend in my heating pad..lol I know what you mean about the fart...lol They can be loaded! Hope you feel better soon... I am jappy too! lol

The heating pad relieved a lot of pain especially in my back. I am not comfortable on my back anyway. I just sip water all day. Not thinking I am getting all of the liquid in but close. I have been able to tolerate all the liquids I have tried so far. I start today on a full liquid so we shall see how that goes. I am feeling good all things considered.

My surgery was 2 days ago and it couldn't have gone any better. No nausea, not a lot of pain... of course the morphine helped..lol All in all I was pretty comfortable. Thanks to my heating pad... I highly recommend taking one.

I feel great too.. my surgery was on the 17th... 2 days ago. I am sore of course but otherwise doing great. I took a heating pad with me to the hospital and I am amazed at how much it has helped me. For those who are about to be sleeved. Take a heating pad and lay on it...... it helps sooooo much.

I am so glad to hear everyone is doing well.... We got this!

Good morning everyone. Today is my day! I will head for the hospital in just a few min. Surgery is at 7:30 Prayers are welcome..... thanks

Nice to hear you are doing well....

Great job exfatboy... just don't over do it..... and thanks

It is now 24 hours until I get my sleeve. Go Me!! I am so excited I can't stand it. I am not nervous or scared. I have a wonderful Dr. that I have used before. He did my Nissen Fundaplication a couple yrs ago. It has come almost totally undone. No fault of his. I had a lot of vomiting over the yrs that caused that I'm sure. They will have to undo all of that and repair another hernia before doing the sleeve. The post op for the first few weeks is very much like the post op of the Nissen so I have been there and know what to expect of this. I thank God for this procedure. I pray for a safe surgery and fast recovery, not only for myself but for all of us having this done.

Good luck ladies... my thoughts and prayers are with you...

Good luck and sending prayers your way!

Good luck to both of you!

Just focus on taking care of yourself and feeling better. Keep us posted when you can.
